maybe the epic arc is valuable because it'll lead to more epic arcs that give half decent rewards?

I say this having not run an epic mission arc yet, but is there a lot of story built into what the agent gives you? Or did you just skip over that hoping for an epic reward?
Also, it's Level 1. What are you really expecting?

Yeah, the story is pretty good. But i often found i was being tossed between side quest-style missions. Other than that, it was pretty decent.

When CCP said epic, they didn't mean "OMG PURPLEZ!!!!!!!!" They meant a long series(epic) of story line missions with a good bit of history(epic) and some rewards involved.

You got each missions payout and time bonuses and a book you would otherwise need to purchase.
Sounds a bit like rewards to me.

You know you keep talking about the isk, but if I could run 50 missions without a single repeat I would be a very happy missioner

It doesn't matter if YOU think it is worthless. The epic mission wasn't created for YOUR expectations. It was created by CCP to give people, who are interested, a series of relatively unique missions with story attached.
Just because YOU assumed you would get some epic reward doesn't mean CCP failed to deliver on what they intended.

I liked it, story was good and the notes give you a lot of background. Ok as a experienced player I knew most, but not all of it.
Since I ran it in a Harpy, i didn't exactly expect any of the missions to be hard.
I think the one mission where you can, but don't have to attack the 10 BS was put there just so experienced players could have some fun and make some isk.
I did find it a bit anticlimatic though, the final battle would have been nasty in a t1 fg, but not quite epic. Fighting through a few waves or pockets first would have made a more fitting finish.
Some other form of reward would have been nice too, possibly an implant, maybe a SOE decoration? And noticable SOE standing bump.

There's another epic storyline? I thought we just had the lvl 1 SoE one so far.
I do recall running lvl 1s for Intaki Space Police awhile back and getting about 200k payouts for them, and that's low nullsec... so the SoE chain seemed pretty good to me.

specificaly Quote:
Epic Arcs, on the other hand, will be available only from unique agents (or strings of agents); they are linked together in an ongoing story that unfolds over the course of many missions. These missions also incorporate a new branching system, providing players with choices in the path through an Epic Arc. Finally, while the rewards for Epic Missions won't be vastly greater than those for normal missions, they will tend to give out cool new toys (or at least exceptional rewards) at the ends of chapters and, of course, at the end of each complete arc.
The sooner you realise the developers are full of crap the sooner you will be happy with how the game actualy is.

Sad troll of a post really kaloli.....
What the OP forgets is that this epic arc is basically a contimuation of the Tutorial missions, its given as a referal from the career missions the aim seeming to be to get the noobs out and about and experienceing all four factions.
For a few days old character with little or no knowledge of eve this arc is a win.
Maybe kaloli should get some perspective....

10 mill is huge for a new player. When I started, I grinded level 1 missions and after a week barely had 2 million isk. 50 million isk is a great start for a new player.
Sure, maybe a couple more skill books could be droopped along the way to get the character development started, but the isk alone makes the epics worth it for a true newb.

Yes it is, when you finish the 10-part tutorial mission, the agent tells you to talk to Sister Alimentado in Arnon. It is a progression from the tutorial missions.

lol can only laugh now , since this turned in to be a troll treat -.- and yes when it says "clear all in the sight" or "kill dragan and hes security" etc U have to kill it all -.- try go do it in a frig or even a reaper as someone said and u will see , and have played for a month so dont think 10 mill is much for 50 missions -.- go do a lvl 1 20 + agent and u will see u would get more from doing 50 missions there and coudt then buy then book . if people cant see the point of that ok then maybe its you thats stupid?

It's the first arc of the first arc line for "just finished tutorial" super newbies.
What did you expect, a +5 named set of implants plus a faction BS and a Titan BPO?

lets see. A lvl 1 agent above quality 6 requires more standing than a new player starts out with, meaning you have to go do missions for lower quality agents until you build enough standing for the higher qualities. Also, level 20 agents are rare, and there is no '+' 20 is as high as they go.
So for a new player, who just finished the 10-mission tutorials, this is a fantastic oppurtunity to get a lot of isk and a free book. Sure, you could probably do 50 missions for a level 20 agent, but you couldn't do them right away, and you'd have to find one first, then grind up the standings. For a brand new player, i doubt they'd be able to find a level 20 agent in the time it would take to complete the epic arc, unless another player told them where to find one.
Give it a break, wait a few months until the content team makes a few more higher level ones, then you'll get your 'epic' rewards.

It's safe to say the OP is either a troll or doesn't know what he's talking about, or (most likely) both… In fact, I'd even be surprised if (s)he has actually done the Epic arc.

having run missions for three factions across eve from first to fourth level, im finding The Blood Stained Stars to be quite epic, 50 unique missions that takes me across empire space, a refreshing change from damsel in distress, rogue drone harrassment over and over.
for older players, its like a COSMOS vacation. Phat lewts dont come from missions. they come from plexes or officer spawns out in 0.0.
the notion that you are paying out the first of a new mission system because you didnt get 'omg purplez!' is laughable. as is your grasp of grammar and spelling.
if you are so concerned about isk/hour and grinding to get pats on the head, i'd encourage you to try a blizzard game.

Personally i liked the epic missions.
Nothing better than doing 50ish missions without any major repeats.
The end reward amount + loot + salvage + bounty's made it worthwhile to me.
I'd gladly do more epics, though obviously a few different levels of epics would make sense.
I enjoyed it enough to hang around SOE and fleet up nearly a dozen times in 2 days against pristan and probably 8 times against dagan.
Most of the time the reward was shared to me and i got some nice little salvage.
The whole fleet job is really a good experience for lower leveled players.
In fact i'll be back over again tonight.
Think i'm in the mood for taking on those 10 BC/C in one mission where you could avoid them.

Sad troll of a post really kaloli.....
What the OP forgets is that this epic arc is basically a contimuation of the Tutorial missions, its given as a referal from the career missions the aim seeming to be to get the noobs out and about and experienceing all four factions.
For a few days old character with little or no knowledge of eve this arc is a win.
Maybe kaloli should get some perspective....
lol -.- this epic wasnt part of any turtorial or any noob mission , if u call killing harder missions then WC and BC and destroyers noob missions then ok . cause u need atleast a T2 fit rifter to this , i did it in a T2 fit rifter and was actully pretty hard , many of them was like 10 cruisers and 5 frigs in each group
I rolled a new character, ran the tutorial missions then went straight into the epic arc with a frigate. Soloed all the missions up until the destroyer book. Then I switched into a destroyer and completed the arc still flying solo. I had about 220,000 skill points in non-learning skills (not all combat) when I completed it. No T2 ships or T2 gear used.
The last couple of missions were challenging but not absurdly so. I never lost a ship.

About the epic arc, what modules do you need to finish it? Just combat modules or also a miner and something like that?

Vaerah Vahrokha said ôIt's the first arc of the first arc line for "just finished tutorial" super newbies. What did you expect,ö
What did we expect? We expected decent branching and replay ability with different endings. We expected a decent story. We expected exceptional rewards and unique rewards at the end of chapters and the complete arch. We expected standings. We expected our actions would have an impact on the story. We expected more than one arch with decent missions.
CCP did not deliver what they promised.

From memory (mine isn't the best) I think there might have been a mining mission and one that asked you to use a civilian codebreaker module. Nearly all of it was combat with some courier/fly around missions.
